also peeps there is a Bob Tortoise. He has a FB page and some other access points. I’m not sure whether this will come up as logged in under my facebook or just with his info. I am also aware of another Grumpy tortoise-y guy in I think Arizona who has a webpage but I don’t have that info to hand at the moment. Ok well Here goes for Bob at least:

My boyfriend and I rescued a turtle once. Or maybe it was a tortoise, I’m not sure. Anyway, we found it sitting smack in the middle of the road and we had to take it before someone squished it. We named him “Bucky.” He stayed inside his shell most of the time in the car, except when he occasionally stuck his head and arms and legs out and waved them around frantically in midair and glared at us in a decidedly ungrateful fashion. He had shovel-shaped feet and long claws. We kept Bucky with us for about half an hour, until we arrived at my parents’ island summer residence, then we let him go and he immediately legged it for the water, plopped in and swam away.
